Clayton Kershaw made his own piece of history against the Baltimore Orioles on Sunday, but he has an active MLB world for him in a statistics that is an example of the lifespan.
Kershaw, who spent his entire 18-year career at De Los Angeles Dodgers, made a start against the Orioles on Sunday and marked the 29th other team with which he was dealing with during his illustrious career. Per statistics perform, the 37-year-old Kershaw is the 286th player in the MLB history to start with Werper against at least 29 different teams in his career.
It cost him the fourth most start of 29 teams and joined an impressive list of pitchers (performing per statistics):
Greg Maddux – 29th opponent in 654th Start (Cleveland)
Roger Clemens – 29th opponent in 631st Start (Philadelphia)
Andy Pettitte – 29th opponent in 470th start (Houston)
Clayton Kershaw – 29th opponent in 448th start (Baltimore)
Clayton Kershaw threw in numerous MLB -Stadions
With Kershaw opposite those 29 opponents, he also made some of those starts in MLB stadiums that no longer exist, such as Shea Stadium, former home base of the New York Mets and Turner Field, former home of the Atlanta Braves.
In total, Kershaw has thrown into 35 different MLB stadiums, bound for the second most under active pitchers (including play-offs, performing per statistics). Kershaw is bound with Jose Quintana, Max Scherzer and Justin Landander at 35.
So who runs for those four long -term Hurlers? Charlie Morton, now also in his 18th MLB season, leads all active pitchers with 36 stadiums. The 41-year-old Morton threw seven different teams in his career, including two this year at the Orioles and Detroit Tigers.
Morton moves between the American and national competitions instead of staying with one team, has given him a lead over his colleagues, and it is a lead that could take some time. The athletics are expected to move to their new house in Las Vegas in 2028, the next new margin that is expected to open. It will be interesting to see if one of the pitchers currently on the list above is still active when baseball comes to Las Vegas.
